After Action Report

The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Nets 101-80. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Nets. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
